Default Misfire DTC's

So yesterday I floored it in 3rd gear at low rpms and noticed the car lagging pretty bad. Right away the check engine light started flashing. I thought "Oh ****" as I've seen the flashing CEL before and knew it's bad. Threw it in neutral right away and started coasting to a stop getting ready to turn off the car. Before I came to a full stop the CEL stopped flashing but stayed on. Got home and found the following:

DTCs: 12/8/05 2:39 pm - 5 Faults:

2.7l V6/5VT G01 0003
P/N: 8D0 907 551 A
Coding: 06611, WSC: 00601

16730: Camshaft Position Sensor (A) Bank 2: Range/Performance [Sporadic]

16684: Random / Multiple Cylinder: Misfire Detected

16688: Cylinder 4: Misfire Detected

16690: Cylinder 6: Misfire Detected

16689: Cylinder 5: Misfire Detected

This was with 100 octane gas on the APR 100 octane program (software not upgraded yet). Now I've toasted Camshaft position sensors before, but was wondering if perhaps you guys have seen this be a different problem? Any ideas are welcome, before I take it in to be dissected.

Default Just from the codes it looks like a cam position sensor. Clear it and see if it returns.

You've gone through a number of cam sensors???
